At this dinner it’s you who brings the party, or at least the witty repartee, and whatever unfolds – leave it at the table. With hearty plates to share and drinks in hand, this is your opportunity to get up close and personal with fellow FODI-tragics and some of the Festival’s big thinkers. With each delicious course a new challenge is served, a provocation for you to vehemently agree or furiously dispute. This is your turn to talk and get your fix of greenroom chat. Hear dinner table stories and opinions from our talent, that won’t ever make it to the stage. Seats are limited, get in quick.
